Storage Codes from Projective Planes | BIMSA General Lecture

Time:2024-01-09 Tue 14:00-15:00

Venue:A3-2a-302

Organizer:YIngjie Zhang, Dongyu Wu

Speaker:Junming Ke University of Tartu

Abstract

Coding theory has been widely applied in fields such as digital communication, multimedia, and distributed storage systems. In this talk, we will use projective planes to construct the generator and parity-check matrix for storage codes. We will study repair performance and update performance of codes. Private Information Retrieval (PIR) is an important application of coding theory in terms of privacy protection. It allows users to retrieve the required information from the database without compromising the query content. In this talk, I will introduce how to use a generator matrix to construct a private information retrieval scheme. Besides, I will give a toy example to show the relation between coding theory and cryptography protocols.

      Introduction to zkSNARKs | BIMSA General Lecture

      AbstractZero-Knowledge Succinct Non-interactive ARguments of Knowledge (zkSNARKs) have been a hot topic lately because they are one of the essential tools for building privacy-preserving blockchain applications. zkSNARKs enable one party (the prover) to prove to another party (the verifier) that a statement is true, without revealing other information apart from the fact that the statement is t...

      BIMSA General Lecture | Information Processing in Optical Quantum Systems

      AbstractOptical quantum systems possess advantages such as simple bit manipulation and strong noise resistance, making them one of the most convenient and mature experimental platforms for simulating low-qubit systems and exploring fundamental quantum mechanics. Moreover, photons, serving as natural flying qubits, offer unparalleled advantages over other carriers in numerous quantum information...
